Perhaps he wanted a new car and reckoned that the truck would have to pay for it.

Quote from: Aristo 60 on March 09, 2026, 06:11:08 PMWhat sort Ss if u dont mind me asking?

BMW X1

Has taken me all over Ireland following Longford. High speed chargers are becoming more and more available. For example, when Longford played Antrim a few weeks ago, I went a bit early and fully charged the car up there while I had my lunch before the match. The full charge cost about €20. A full tank of petheral would have been...........what.......€70?


A lot more than that I'd say. Well, nowadays anyway.

In Antrim €70 would have sufficed.

DT doing a solid for his mate Putin.

Israel doesnt want to alienate India who it is heavily courting.

Meanwhile the little comedian is issuing death threats to European heads of state.

If Israel doesn't want to alienate India then why did it bulldoze the Commonwealth war cemetery in Gaza and collaborate with the US in sinking an Iranian ship which was taking part in joint exercises with the Indian navy?

Quote from: Wildweasel74 on March 06, 2026, 08:30:45 PMWhy cantcRete run these full games on tv veey late at nite for people to watch or record.
Or oin general why can't RTE add a digital sports channel and roll the games in full all week.

I don't know how it is now, but in the past RTÉ were restricted from having more channels as Virgin said it took up too much advertising revenue.

Quote from: Armagh18 on March 06, 2026, 07:18:57 AMAmazing that they had access to it all along!

They weren't allowed buy devices, but were smuggling them in from permissive locations.

Quote from: Armagh18 on March 06, 2026, 07:18:57 AMApparently the US have been cut off a lot of the intelligence end of things after they were purposely given false information and it was passed on to Russia, Ukraine been going well ever since!

Apparently, France helps out with intel these days.

This is not positive thinking, in my opinion

League table more or less corresponds to number of two pointers, although goals also win games

Quote from: thebigfullforward on March 01, 2026, 05:19:10 PMJust finished watching Dublin Roscommon there. First 20 minutes from Roscommon the worst a team has looked under the new rules so far I think. Went to a minor game instead and at least the young lads had a go at it

First 20 minutes Roscommon had about 12 shots and it included probably one of the worst misses for a goal chance I've seen this year.  Dublin from nearly every miss broke on the counter for easy scores and ended the game as a contest before half time.



We were awful today.
Relegation back on the table unfortunately.

Given recent performances, I was fairly  sure Roscommon   would beat Dublin with a few points  to spare.

What went wrong?  Was the conditions a factor?

These windy games place importance on who plays with the wind. Against Armagh, Roscommon had a confidence building early lead, and needed dogged defence in the second half. Against Dublin, they needed to come from behind and this may not have suited them.

Quote from: screenexile on March 01, 2026, 02:50:59 PMThat's probably the best Derry have played in 2 years but couldn't believe how poor Cork are. Hard to believe they travelled all this way to play like that.

Cork are always like that. They invariably give us a very tough game in Cork, but look like they crawled out of the hotel bar when they take the field in Ballybofey or Ballyshannon.

If you bet against Cork in away games, you'd come out ahead.

If Derry can squeeze past Cork, then they will be in a strong position, both owing to score difference but also a useful head to head against another promotion contender, Cork might easily slip up against Tyrone on the last day but Derry will beat Cavan. But if Cork win then they will likely be promoted.

Quote from: bennydorano on February 28, 2026, 03:52:18 PMSome big units in that Mullingar team, 1.2 to 3 to Abbey after 20m.

Some of them lads used to eating Mullingar heifers, no 9 is a giant.
Abbey slow to start, with problems with the kickout, partly because of big units on the other side, but better after the first quarter.
